Dead Sexy
Dead Sexy
She lives to be dead
Dead sexy that is
Tossing her coiffured head
Strutting all movie star
All ‘I’m just out of bed’
Thinking she’s quite the thing
With that made up face
That practiced grin
Big white teeth flashing
Above that determined chin
It’s just too bad honey
You sat hypnotised
While she cried like it was funny
Blowing you that kiss
As she made like time was money
It’s such a shame babe
When you thought you had love
It was just a charade
Cos she was looking for a spotlight
While you were standing in the shade
Her loves a shadow on the wall
A candle in the wind
But you took the fall
Realising too late the words she spoke
Were just illusions after all
Conversation is a one way street
A self absorbed
Scratched record on repeat
Nothing of substance
A ‘kill me now’ boring bleat
“Look at me, look at me
I’m just so gorgeous
So popular, can’t you see
The cutest thing ever
Don’t you wish you were with me?”
Good lord, WHAT a bore
Take me out, shoot me
Nail my ears to the floor!
I’d rather be dead or deaf
Than sit through an encore
You would’ve picked it
If you’d been there to listen
Those actors eyes were all a glisten
And you would’ve seen it
If you hadn’t been lost in the frisson
Do you think she’ll ever know
Sniggering behind her back
He mimics her silly pose?
He’s seen it so many times
He knows exactly how it goes
So the bottom line?
Is dead sexy really the thing?
Not to the broken heart left behind
Sexy is as sexy does
And dead sexy is clearly for a shallow mind
Don’t go there girl, keep it true
Keep it real, be sincere
Present a bare all honest view
For mercy’s sake…
Just be you.
